zazzles any idea how to use Google Drive to grab photos from Mike?!? I looked at Google Drive via a web browser and while it is possible to upload a photo, set it to shareable, then get a link to share, the link is not directly to an image but to a Google Drive page which displays the image.
You can paste the link as a URL instead of an image, and that will cause a web page to open and display the image, but it doesn’t seem possible to show the photo inline in a message as an image.

With tinypic I just uploaded the picture and copied the link...pasted to the new location. Isn't there anything like that?
I'm looking at photobucket and Flickr maybe I'll be able to figure them out.

You want the “direct link” option. Copy the link and paste it into the image url here and the photo will appear. |

I use Shutterfly. With one click you can upload your photos from your desktop, phone, FB, etc. If you want to post a pic here you simply pull up the pic on Shutterfly and right-click the pic and then choose the "copy image address" option. Go to this message board and when you want to include a photo in your reply you need to hit the "reply" button first and go to the enhanced reply page---not the "Quick Reply" box at the bottom of the thread. Find the little icon that looks like a photo of mountains. Click on that icon and you will get a box where you can paste the image address of your photo that you copied. Insert that image address and your photo should pop up. You only need to use the first box---there are two choices. If the pic comes up absolutely enormous, click on the tab on the bottom of the enhanced reply box that says "BBCode." Find the "100%" and highlight it. Change the "100" to maybe "50" to reduce the size of the photo to acceptable proportions--make sure the % sign remains. Click on "preview" again and you should see your post, complete with photo. Then hit "Create Post" and hope for the best.  |

Jennifer, when you right click do you see any "copy" option? If so use that, or go to the browser bar and copy that.

RidgeRunner , correct it must be viewable to the public on the net, not a private link. To post a link you need to use the "globe" option, for a picture use the one that looks like a landscape between the envelope and the clapboard. Don't forget to delete everything in those boxes before you copy your link into them.

RidgeRunner, I am the admin, trust me you don't need my permission to post pics here as long as they are public on the internet you can post them here 🤗

To post the above. I copied the URL you posted the link to
I went to the photo option, deleted the http that was there, then posted the link in both spots.

Also you have to post a picture according to where you are grabbing it from. The directions I first gave you were because the picture was on Instagram. Your next photo was just on the web so I used the photo option.
Like I have said previously, it all depends where you grab the picture from.
